We won't make the Jim Mora "Playoffs?!?!" joke this season. It's a Derek and Jake episode this week, and they're breaking down a couple big WPIAL playoff storylines: Can Butler baseball finally win a title as the top seed? And can Knoch softball do the same? Will Mars boys lacrosse make it 10 straight and the girls four? And who is Dominic The Intern? The answer to those questions and more this week. Plus, Karns City's Alex Wilson has been upping the Gremlins pole vault record for a couple years now. The junior, who has the top height in Butler County so far this season, hops on Eye on Sports this week to talk about his season and his goals heading into the District 9 and PIAA track and field championships. He talks about the sibling rivalry that got him into pole vaulting, the training, the weather and more. And Derek's steps out of retirement for a week to answer a trivia question. Can he get back in the win column?

The WPIAL track and field championships are next week, as are District 9 and 10. What can we expect from some of Butler County's top runners, jumpers and throwers? We break it down. A week off should've given us a rested Jake. Instead, he's in pain from his Broad Street Run. You know who's not in pain? Butler County's standout track and field athletes who are gearing up for the district championships next week. Derek and Brendan break down the field and some of our expectations for the WPIAL, District 9 and District 10. Plus, Seneca Valley's Madi Barnyk and North Catholic's Simone Sharpless join the show to talk about their experience on the stage when the Steelers made their pick during the NFL draft, including meeting Jerome Bettis and making sure they kept their cool the whole time. We also talk about Evgeni Malkin's future with the Penguins (and Jake revels in his Flyers' victory) and Derek's excellent story on Moniteau softball's Graysen Rottman's battle with a rare condition that cut her playing career short.

"I got about four hours of sleep last night." Seneca Valley grad Easton Bazzoli still hasn't slept much since leading Gannon men's basketball to its first NCAA Division II title a week ago. Is it the recruiting, the celebration or raising a 3-year-old? The former Raiders standout hops on the pod to talk about a whirlwind season and what's next. But before that, Jake and Brendan (Derek is on vacation this week) talk swimming and wrestling all-county teams and break down the stars from the 2025-26 season. Finally, did you know the NFL draft is coming up? Jake gives Brendan a Eagle-Steelers-themed trivia question with a twist, and they break down some of the options and scuttlebutt (good word) for the Steelers at No. 21.

"What do you got there, Brendan?" Jake finally pays off his debt from the fantasy football season, much to Brendan's full stomach's content. He chows down while we break down our decisions for the Butler Eagle all-county boys and girls basketball teams, including players of the year Teegan Finucan (Knoch) and Madison Romanovich (Slippery Rock). Did we make the right calls? Who else could've made the team? Then, Mars grad Jackson Krock joins the show, still coming down from the euphoria of winning the NCAA Division III hockey championship with Hamilton and shares some stories of winning the natty and the US-Canada rivalry on the team.

Mars football and track star Brad Mueller is heading to the Butler County Sports Hall of Fame this month. The former Boston College running back who later went to Slippery Rock University joined us in studio to relive some of his favorite memories as head enters the hall. But before that, a food debate leads to ... well ... something. We get "real," and maybe a little TMI. Please some recaps on the Butler County Classic, a Seneca Valley grad leading Gannon men's basketball to the NCAA Division II championship game and JJ Wetherholt's unbelievable MLB debut.

"Diving is definitely the way we still get that excitement." Mars diver and newly crowned WPIAL and PIAA medalist Marin Raible hopped on "Eye on Sports" to talk about her transition from gymnastics to diving and what it was like to win multiple medals. But first, we stumble all over ourselves to get the interview started as she laughs at our expense. The guys talk spring sports. Can Mars boys and girls lacrosse make it 10 and four WPIAL titles in a row, respectively? We've been unleashing our athletes to watch lists this week and break down some of the big names to know in lax, track, baseball and softball. Plus, Jake has an update on College Football Hall of Fame Terry Hanratty and his cancer battle after talking to the Butler legend. Don't worry, the jokes are still flying!
